A Guide To Be Used

The appearance of the American version of the Handbook on Communism, which was first published in Germany and later in England, is an event of great importance. Its 686 pages, which cover a tremendous field of knowledge, are not, of course, supposed to be read from cover to cover; it is intended as a reference work and deals with fifteen important subjects, among them the structure of Communism (by Joseph M. Bochenski), Communist political doctrine (by Gerhart Niemeyer), the methodology of conquest (by Stefan T. Possony, John S. Reshetar Jr., and W. W. Kulski), the Communist Party (by John S. Reshetar Jr.), Soviet imperialism (by Jan Librach), the peasants (by Karl Wittfogel), and the Soviet economy (by Ralph James).
